| Article | Dallas—American Olean has introduced four new product collections: Carriage House, High-land Ridge, Cortesia and Lyndhurst Mosaics. The new collections feature popular stone looks and a broad assortment of sizes, ranging from large, 18-in. tiles to small, 2-in. mosaics. “American Olean’s goal with these four new collections is to provide homeowners and designers with the latest, most popular stone looks in a wide variety of colors and sizes,” said Matthew Kahny, vice president of marketing at American Olean. “These new collections also offer unique accent packages that really allow homeowners to upgrade the look of their design project. “Our Carriage House collection is a stunning floor/wall combo that provides a great look and strong accent package at a value price,” he added. “We’re confident that homeowners will respond positively to Carriage House’s beautiful stone look, varied sizing and versatile accent options all at a great price.” The Carriage House collection emulates rustic natural stones and is available in four soft, natural colors (Canvas, Straw, Saddle and Buckskin) and four field tile sizes (18-, 12-, 8X10- and 6-in.). Created to emulate the natural slate found in the Scottish Highlands, the High-land Ridge collection features a rustic, textured surface complemented by four random shade/color variations (Desert, Autumn, Mountain and Evergreen). In addition to its three modular field sizes (18-, 12- and 6-in.), the collection is enhanced by its 2X12-in. two-color blend accents and 4X12-in. riverstone pebble borders. A 1X3-in. mosaic, sheet-mounted in a brick pattern, completes the collection. With its rough-hewn edges, Cortesia boasts the rustic look and texture of chiseled travertine. Three soft, rich colors (Bianco, Dorato and Noce) feature dramatic shading and random color variation. Cortesia’s multiple-size field tile package includes a 20-, 13- and 10-in., as well as a 10-in. rectangle, all of which allow for numerous pattern options. The collection’s universal decorative accents in-clude a 40-in. medallion, as well as 1X13- and 3X13-in. borders—all of which feature delicate fossil motifs and random-sized mosaic pieces. Lyndhurst Mosaics is an assortment of mosaic-blends featuring earthen colors and a slightly worn appearance. The color palette, which borrows its colors and texture from travertine stone, includes three color blends, Woodland (shades of brown), Millstone (shades of light beige) and Meadow (shades of blue, green, cream and brown). The 2-in. dot-mounted pieces were designed to coordinate with a multitude of other American Olean product lines. For more information on American Olean and its products, call 215/822-7300. |
